Volunteer

Volunteer with Meals on Wheels

Volunteers are the heart of Meals on Wheels. As a volunteer, you are responsible for delivering meals to seniors, elders, people living with disabilities and people recovering from injuries – all within your neighbourhood.

Requirements

  • Two hours of your time once a week or twice a month
  • A valid driver’s license
  • A vehicle or partner willing to drive
  • Three references

You don’t have to volunteer year-round to make a difference. If you can drive for a couple of weeks, a month or a season, we’d love to have you on our team.

What Do Volunteers Do?

  • Deliver 10 to 20 meals between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.
  • Volunteer on weekdays and/or weekends at a frequency that suits you
  • Pick up meals from one of our 11 delivery centres across Winnipeg and deliver to the neighbourhood of your choice
  • Enjoy a flexible schedule
  • Receive a gasoline honorarium for each route you serve

Corporate Groups

Does your company encourage volunteering? Why not organize a group in your office to share a Meals on Wheels delivery route over lunch breaks? By volunteering once a week or twice a month, your company can have a big impact on your community. Why Volunteer?

  • Help individuals in your community enjoy healthy, independent living
  • Assist families in answering the growing needs of their loved one
  • Meet new people in your neighbourhood
  • Keep active with light exercise at your own pace
  • Complete the volunteer hours required by your education programs
  • Make a difference without making a huge commitment
